Hi Berker, When I have read your message, I was surprised because this target already exists since 2010. It's true we can run the makefile with my current workflow is make -C Doc/ venv && make -C Doc/ html serve and open my browser at http://localhost:8000 but with your suggestion, I think it's better for us and also for the contributors, just make -C Doc/ venv htmlview. This target will open the browser with the result of the html build. So, I have discussed with @Julien Palard and he told me that he did not use the 'serve' target and he discovered the target via my issue. But there will be an other issue, in the devguide, there is also a 'serve' target in the Makefile with a copy of tools/serve.py. But there is no htmlview target. For the moment, we have a common solution for the two project if we want to show the result to the user, make serve. We could: * remove 'make serve' from CPython and Devguide * remove tools/serve.py from CPython and Devguide * add htmlview to the DevGuide * update the documentation +1 for removing the serve.py script and use htmlview. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue36329> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
